If you mean the inner "pad retainer" it is the same and the finish should be BZP.

Thank you tlc.The part I am referring to is 9.5 cm diameter with the 4 holes, the disc tab washers fit on the outside of that.It is described in the parts book as a dust cover41012-14. On the right at the moment is a domed version of the same thing which obviously wont fit with twin disc set up that is why I was wondering if you fit 2 l/h ones when converting.

Photo shows what you have and what you need. The cover is for sale if you need it.

No it's chrome.

Are you sure two left handers will work?

The one on the right should be flat. The left one is raised to cover the speedo drive.

The one on the left, speedo side, is flat whilst on the right it is raised to cover the spacer.
